Comment After 20 years.... (Score -1, Flamebait) 167

I'm just about ready to leave Slashdot. This fucking place has turned in to a handful of climate alarmists reporting on every god damn hyperbolic "news" story about doom and death and gloom unless we all kill ourselves immediately. I swear to god there must be an element in the human psyche that NEEDS to fear the coming apocalypse, imagined or not.

Comment Saw it last night... (Score 1) 243

I thought it was great, and so did my wife, who does not like violence or sci-fi. There's a small element of woakness (the three main characters are female) but I didn't feel like it was pushed down our throats. If Linda Hamilton or another actor bragged publicly about how this was a f&cking victory for women during an interview (ala Captain Marvel) then I definitely would not have seen it, but on its face, this movie was very good.

Your stereotypes may have applied 30 years ago, but they don't hold up today. Democrats don't vote less because they're disorganized. They vote less because they actually have jobs...

I'm OK with stating that a comment is overly broad, but then you murder your own point with some of the dumbest stereotyping I've seen, most of which is trivially disputed.

Comment ZOMG!! (Score 0) 170

Heretics, heathens, blasphemers, all of them!!! Climate change wackos literally sound like religious fanatics and are slowly driving me from "yeah, pollution is generally bad and we should be responsible" to "WTF these guys are seriously crazy and I'm tempted to push back against their hyperbole".

Comment So misleading! (Score 1) 249

The study showed that vegetables grown in higher CO2 concentrations grew FASTER. A large carrot is less nutrient-dense than a small carrot which was grown more slowly, the same as fast-growing trees (like pine) produce weaker wood than slow-growing ones (like oak). The idea that more abundant food will result in fewer nutrients per cubic inch, and that's a bad thing, is absurd.
